alright well thanks for the tips. If any body has any more tips and tricks i'm all ears
I used this stuff called raptor liner that i got from a local auto body shop. comes in a kit with four bottles of the stuff and the hardener that you mix yourself. I bought the spray gun, hooked it up to my air compressor and shot it on with the doors closed (after the cleaning and scuffing it up with some sandpaper). i then opened the doors and shot from an angle so i wouldnt get it in my interior or on the door panels. I also did my front bumper, around all the chrome as well as the front grill.
I'm also guilty of not updating my sig pic (sorry HeyYou), reason being that the weather in pittsburgh from Dec.-Feb. is absolute TRASH
I'm thinking of doing this to my truck too, the doors were done but rust still made it through or was there previously. I'm thinking of using the duplicolor bed armor, seems to be good stuff and has some pretty good reviews and is roll on! If you paint your door shut just go all "Dukes of Hazard" and dive through a window
I used the Duplicolor roll-on and I'm happy with it, just wish I'd sanded down better in that dip below the black strip on the body. I also did around my door jam so everything looked the same. Have a pic of it in my sig.

I scrubbed the heck out of it with Scotchbrite. Sand it until you think you have done enough, then do it again Even the best liner will perform oorly if the prep is not good.
Everything got cleaned over and over with really hot water and dawn soap to cut off grease. Then I sanded everything down with 60 or 80 grit?( can't remember) and bigger rust areas got a wire wheel to them for the major rust and then still got sanded down. The upper part where the "dish" is at only recieved sand paper since I'd hit more area than I would want with the wheel. This summer I'm going and redoing that part, along w/ my buddy's dodge he bought.
